Seven Little Trees

I went tree crazy last night and crocheted seven little ones to decorate our apartment. The first ones I made were green and used Crystal Palace's Little Flowers yarn in Dappled Forest held together with a skein of green Vanna's Choice. I also made one in blue using Crystal Palace's Fizz Stardust held with some Bernat Satin:

And a pink one using Crystal Palace's Fizz Stardust held with some organic cotton:

All 7 together:

And a progress shot:

The pattern is my own and is available free on my blog or on Ravelry as a pdf download. I crocheted all of these with a bit over 150 yards of yarn.
